Abstract

We present analysis of performance of an elitist Evolutionary algorithm using a recombination operator 1-Bit-Swap on the Royal Roads test function. We derive complete, approximate and asymptotic convergence rates. Both complete and approximate models show the benefit of the size of the population and recombination pool when they are small and leveling out of this effect when limit conditions are applied. Numerical results confirm our findings.
